me too.king_of_boredom said:dang i wish i had a pool table.
depends if u wanna play ball in hand, international or bar.LaCe said:I have a pool table and me and a few mates have been playing regularly for a while. So whenever we see a pool table at a Club/Lounge bar we try to play other guys for money and we've won all games so far but it hasnt been really competitive.
And some ppl have really weird rules! Like carry over?? If someone sinks your ball, misses everything, or touches your ball first that is 2 shots. But the person taking two shots, if he sinks a ball, he still doesnt have two shots, he only has one. That is the way i play it, carry over is shit (the other alternative). (understand is?)
just ask what rules ppl play before starting the game, otherwise it'll end up being confusing. i tend to play ball in hand, because that's the official way, but in pubs its generally 2shot rule. some ppl even play no penalties for fouls, as long as they're not deliberate fouls. so if you normally play 2 shots, stick with that, and if the opponent says they play carry over, just use it to your advantage - try and not foul, and aim to snooker them, and get more shots. even try and run out the table!LaCe said:Carry over:
you have 2 shots because your opponent fouled.
you sink one of your balls, do you still have 2 shots?? (NO!)
when you do still have two shots, that is carry over.
What everyone plays is that when you have 2 shots and you sink one of your own balls, you still only have 1 shot left.
